If the Jets are looking for a "really interesting" player in the coming NFL Draft, an imposing tight end who has the potential to supercharge the offense, analyst Lance Zierlein has got the guy: Oregon TE Kenyon Sadiq.

With the No. 2 and the No. 16 picks in the first round of the draft, plus No. 33 at the top of the second round, the Green & White have myriad options. And with GM Darren Mougey showing he is open to making blockbuster trades, anything is possible. Assuming some of the top wide receivers -- such as Carnell Tate, Makai Lemon and Jordyn Tyson -- are all off the board midway through the first round, it could be time for a bold move.

"If you wanted to, if you really wanted to look at your depth chart, I'll tell you who could be really interesting -- if you decided to throw in Kenyon Sadiq," Zierlein told team reporter Eric Allen on an edition of the "Now Boarding" draft show. "I'm a big Mason Taylor fan [the second-year TE out of Miami]. And we'll tell you what we're going to do, we're going to attack teams with one of those guys.

"Or a big slot. We're going to work a lot of 12-personnel, we have two wide receivers, one running back, two tight ends, but one of our tight ends is going to be a big, big slot. So, you're going to have to deal with an athletic player in the slot, a speedy player."

And Sadiq ticks all those boxes. In February, Sadiq (6-3, 241) set the NFL Combine record for tight ends when he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.39 seconds. That bettered the previous record of 4.40 seconds, held jointly by Vernon Davis (2006) and Dorin Dickerson (2010).

At present, the Jets have three tight ends in the room -- Taylor, Jeremy Ruckert and the recently re-signed Jelani Woods.

"Let's face it, Kenyon is an explosive player and you can't put anybody on him," Zierlein said. "A lot of linebackers will be mismatched on him down the field. He may be too big for safety. It's more likely you'd see a nickel corner on him. And those guys a lot of times run about 190 pounds. On Kenyon Sadiq, man that is a physical mismatch."

With the Ducks last season, Sadiq was named a second-team Associated Press All-American, the Big Ten TE of the Year, and first-team All-Big Ten. He was a finalist for the John Mackey Award as the nation's top tight end and led FBS TEs with 8 receiving TDs. Finally, he started 14 games and set a school record for tight ends with 51 receptions (560 yards, 11.0 per).

"You can now run the ball or, if they have a smaller player, you can audible into it, or even set them up," Zierlein said. "Or you're running the ball at Kenyon Sadiq because he's out in the slot blocking a nickel, and that's probably going to be a win in most scenarios. So that would be an interesting pick.

"It would make maybe a little bit more sense if Jordyn Tyson, Makai Lemon and Carnell Tate are off the board and Sadiq is there. He'd be a very interesting selection in terms of what it would allow you to do to mismatch teams from a personnel standpoint."
